    Wiggly Wednesday- Master bedroom and landing!DONE:D :D:D
    Got up early to see to puppy and started doing some of the flying before the school run. Have just finished now and am sat down with a well earned mug of tea. Had to do an army style crawl under the bed to hoover, as its way to heavy to move on my own and OH was at work, but managed it.
    Is it me or is each week becoming a little bit easier with the cleaning. I`m finding that a wipe down instead of an elbow grease scrub is all that`s needed in some places, so takes me less time to do.
    I just want to say a great big fat:grouphug: to pigpen, toots and everyone. Although I don`t get around to reading everyones posts, you are all inspirational and I now look forward to my daily chores. I`ve even thought about sorting out some of my pegs:D , as it sounds like there`s a peg possee going around at the moment.:laugh:
    Anyway catch you all later.

    Well done G&B.

    I have finished cleaning the study
    replied to 8 emails
    sorted a pile of old birthday cards
    put away my Ocado delivery.

    Still could do with another HHP but that can wait until tomorrow, slowly getting there.

    Lunch time now and then either HH in the garage or the garden depending on how I feel, AF arrived this morning and I have pilates this afternoon, think I'll take some parrots as the last thing I feel like doing is 'scoop up and hollowing'.

    Afternoon all

    Two loads of washing out on the line, including my bedding. Lovely day again.

    I've done all the bedrooms, cleaned all the windows inside upstairs including bathroom and toilet. Cleaned all the mirrors while I had the glass stuff out. Dusted and polished all the bedrooms and vacuumed them all. Cleaned lampshades, vacuumed landing and bathroom/toilet floors too. All my cupboards are still tidy from the bedroom moves we've done this year.

    So, Toots, all done :)

    Dusted living room and vacuumed through downstairs.

    Took the dog out early today.

    Dinner cooking now (liver and onions). Will try to catch up.

    Oh, and I watched Mistresses. Back later.

    PEGS!!! :D AAARGH - I nearly succumbed, you evil peg posse!

    Popped into frippery shop to get lavender/scented heather for scented wardrobe bags I am making for Mothers Day present, and spotted lovely hand painted wooden pegs-they were beautiful! Being an MSE OS though, I had to leave with hands firmly in pockets. May attempt to make my own - would make lovely gifts for Flyladies (and gents!)

    Have decluttered lunch, and am off for a HHC 2-2.30 - anyone want to join in?

    Am also trying to have a no TV day today (they're putting the licence fee up :eek: so am seeing if I can do without.....so hopefully more flying as a result!!

    Treat when all done - a riverside walk in sunshine.....

    Just took "which Mr Men character are you" quiz on fb - I got Mr Messy :o
    :A FLY FIRST, KNIT LATER :A

    Since I came home, I have cooked a pzza(half for me now and half for DD's picnic tea), hoovered through downstairs and taken clean dry clothes upstairs.
    Before I went to work....I finished the ironing!!!!:T

    Hope you are all well, will catch up now while eating my pizza....
